The second edition of Emergencies in Obstetrics and Gynaecology provides a practical and accessible guide to all emergency situations encountered in obstetrics and gynaecology, from the immediately life-threatening to the smaller but urgent problems that may arise. Designed around the symptoms and signs with which the patient presents to the hospital, this handbook explains how to arrive at a differential diagnosis and how to prevent, manage, or treat an emergency. The 'Obstetric emergencies' section covers topics from early pregnancy through to post-delivery complications, whilst the 'Gynaecologic emergencies' section addresses those issues that could potentially pose a threat to a women's fertility or even her life. Addressing new topics on issues that have become more prevalent, such as substance misuse in pregnancy, and violence against women and children, the second edition of Emergencies in Obstetrics and Gynaecology is an essential read. A new topic on 'preoperative assessment' outlines how to manage consent, the risks, benefits, and what the patient should expect.
This quick reference guide provides residents and physicians with a valuable tool to help diagnose and treat the most common pediatric emergencies. Based on the clinical presentation, this guide offers advice on history taking, physical examinations, diagnostic imaging, treatment options, and differential diagnoses. Topics include general assessment and management, acute presentations, cardiac emergencies, neonatal emergencies, trauma, and more
Inpatient units treat some of the most clinically challenging psychiatric patients. Clinicians must carefully balance patients' rights with safety concerns of violence and suicide. This updated manual is compact and practical, addressing the common questions and issues clinicians face in day-to-day practice. Chapters are organised around the diagnoses found on inpatient psychiatric units, allowing readers to find their area of interest quickly. A user-friendly question and answer format anticipates commonly asked questions, and tables provide easily accessible information, including diagnostic criteria and medication effects. Incorporating advances in the field over the past decade, chapters review new treatments including ketamine use and chronotherapy, as well as the most recent evidence-based approaches for patients with borderline personality disorder. Drawing on the authors' wealth of experience, their recommendations for best practice as well as treatment philosophies will be valuable for all healthcare professionals working in mental health.
No local, os segundos contam. PHTLS: Suporte de Vida em Trauma Pre-hospitalar ensina e reforca os principios em avaliar rapidamente um paciente de trauma usando uma abordagem ordenada, tratando imediatamente os problemas com risco de vida, a medida que eles sejam identificados, e minimizando quaisquer atrasos em iniciar o transporte a uma destinacao apropriada. Desenvolvido pela Associacao Nacional de Tecnicos de Emergencia Medica (NAEMT) em colaboracao com o Colegio Americano do Comite dos Cirurgioes de Traumas (ASC-COT), o PHTLS, Nona Edicao reflete os conhecimentos e praticas atuais com base em evidencias, e promove o pensamento critico como a base para fornecer cuidados de qualidade. Avaliar rapidamente um paciente de trauma para identificar os cuidados de salvamento constitui o centro da nona edicao do PHTLS. Leva 2 minutos ou menos para um paciente exsanguinante. Nenhuma outra intervencao pre-hospitalar que os prestadores de cuidado realizam e mais importante do que parar esse nivel de sangramento em pacientes de trauma. A fim de refletir isso, o PHTLS, Nona Edicao utiliza a mnemonica XABCDE de avaliacao do paciente para colocar a hemorragia exsanguinante a frente de cada encontro com o paciente. A importancia de XABCDE (hemorragia grave exsanguinante, vias aereas, respiracao, circulacao, incapacidade neurologica e exposicao ao ambiente) e reforcada em cada capitulo clinico. Caracteristicas do PHTLS, Nona Edicao: Informacoes atuais sobre ressuscitacao com fluidos e imobilizacao espinhal a partir de pesquisas com base em evidencias e experientes provedores de cuidados pre-hospitalares que aplicam os principios e as praticas do PHTLS no local Tecnicas atualizadas de tratamento do paciente, incluindo colocacao de torniquete, locais de descompressao com agulha, o uso de ligantes pelvicos, ressuscitacao pediatrica com fluidos e manejo pediatrico das vias aereas Enfase em lesoes evitaveis, desde dirigir distraido ate quedas em adultos idosos, e violencia entre parceiros intimos Foco em ameacas e respostas tacticas civis, desde veiculos como armas de destruicao em massa ate um novo fluxograma de metodologia de avaliacao remota Componentes Dinamicos do Programa O manual do PHTLS, Nona Edicao e o recurso definitivo em cuidados de trauma que detalha as evidencias medicas por tras dos principios e praticas recomendados do curso do PHTLS. Como proximo passo na evolucao do programa do PHTLS, o manual principal sera acompanhado pelo novo manual do curso do PHTLS, que reforca e esclarece os conceitos-chave do curso; apresenta um design envolvente e interativo; e esta escrito de modo que voce sente estar participando de um bate-papo, versus ouvindo a uma aula expositiva.

Le situazioni critiche in medicina d'urgenza e in terapia intensiva rappresentano una tra le sfide piu difficili nella pratica clinica. La natura stessa dell'ambiente di cura, l'incertezza, il rischio elevato, i tempi ristretti e lo stress, rendono queste discipline particolarmente vulnerabili agli errori nella gestione dei pazienti. Nell'ultimo decennio e diventato sempre piu evidente, che la capacita di erogare trattamenti sicuri in queste circostanze dipende da un'approfondita conoscenza dei meccanismi all'origine dell'errore umano. Questo volume, che e la traduzione italiana della seconda edizione di Crisis Management in Acute Care Settings, propone una rassegna originale e completa di tutti i problemi correlati ai fattori umani, rilevanti per la sicurezza dei pazienti durante l'erogazione di trattamenti urgenti. Le energie di medici e psicologi si sono mescolate in un testo facilmente accessibile, che aiutera i medici e altri professionisti della salute a comprendere meglio i principi del comportamento umano e del processo decisionale nelle situazioni critiche, per evitare errori e garantire un trattamento piu sicuro ai loro pazienti.

Die Behandlung postoperativer Schmerzen gehoert zu den wichtigsten Aufgaben des Anasthesisten, seiner chirurgisch tatigen Partner und des Pflegepersonals. Obwohl eine Vielzahl von effektiven und sicheren Methoden der postoperativen Schmerztherapie beschrieben worden ist, lasst die Umsetzung in die Routine noch sehr zu wunschen ubrig. Das Ziel dieses Buches in seiner grundlich uberarbeiteten 2. Auflage ist es, das Bewusstsein fur die derzeitigen Mangel zu scharfen und Anregungen fur dringend noetige Verbesserungen zu geben. Theoretische Grundlagen des postoperativen Schmerzes, der systemischen Pharmakotherapie sowie der Lokal- und Regionalanasthesie und alternative Methoden werden beschrieben; ausfuhrliche Reviews der derzeitigen Kenntnisse und praktische Empfehlungen fur die klinische Routine schliessen sich an. Das Buch wird so zu einem wichtigen Nachschlagewerk fur AErzte, Medizinstudenten und Pflegepersonal.
Lebensbedrohliche Situationen im OP und auf der Intensivstation koennen nur bei exakter Diagnostik entsprechend therapiert werden. Eine umfassende apparative UEberwachung hat sich neben der kontinuierlichen klinischen Beurteilung durch die funf Sinne des behandelnden Arztes als unbedingt notwendig erwiesen. Die Ausweitung des Monitorings unter Einschluss elektronischer Messgroessen und intelligenter Verarbeitung macht es moeglich, die Grenzen der operativen und Intensivmedizin zu erweitern. Zweck dieses Buches ist es, UEberwachungsparameter und -techniken aus beiden Bereichen und die Prinzipien, Moeglichkeiten und Grenzen der UEberwachung zu prasentieren.
Neurologische, neurovegetative und psychische Veranderungen nach gro- ssen Operationen oder Intensivbehandlungen weisen auf abgelaufene Stoe- rungen cerebraler Funktionen hin. Solche Veranderungen sind bei genauer Analyse keineswegs selten; sie haben ein weites Spektrum der klinischen Manifestation. Wahrend die bestmoegliche Kreislaufuberwachung unter Einbeziehung der fortlaufenden EKG-Registrierung bei Narkosen und In- tensivbehandlungen heute als selbstverstandliche Routine gilt, ist bisher die objektive und laufende Kontrolle cerebraler Funktionszustande unter den verschiedensten Einflussen von Anasthesie, Operation und Intensivmedizin nicht befriedigend geloest. Der klinischen Neurophysiologie gelingt zunehmend - vor allem durch das EEG bei visueller wie auch spektralanalytischer Auswertung - die Dar- stellung funktioneller Veranderungen als AEquivalent bzw. als Ursache klini- scher, neurologischer und psychischer Stoerungen. Von aktueller Bedeutung ist deshalb die Frage, ob anasthesiologische EEG-UEberwachung sowohl vom theoretischen Ansatz her als auch in der praktischen Durchfuhrbarkeit geeignet ist, cerebrale Stoerungen, die durch perioperative Massnahmen aus- geloest werden, fruhzeitig zu erkennen, zu deuten und hierdurch bestmoeglich zu vermeiden oder zu behandeln. Letzlieh steht dahinter die Grundfrage, inwieweit anasthesiologische Massnahmen sich am EEG-Bild orientieren und danach gesteuert werden koennen und ob eine EEG-Analy- se sowohl fur den einzelnen Patienten als auch generell fur die Wertung einer anasthesiologischen Massnahme bedeutsam ist. Diesen Fragen der Relevanz und der Praktikabilitat einer anasthesiolo- gisehen EEG-UEberwachung wird in diesem Buch nachgegangen. Grundla- ge hierfur ist die Analyse von uber 1500 durchgefuhrten EEG-Ableitungen im anasthesiologisch-chirurgischen bzw. -gynakologischen Krankengut.
